Interior

The Vantage V8 Coupe was unveiled on 21 November 2017. Deliveries began in June 2018. [4] [5] [6] The Vantage uses powertrain and infotainment technology from Mercedes-Benz, like the DB11. The Vantage uses Mercedes-AMG's M177, [7] 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine that has a power output of 510 PS (375 kW; 503 hp) and 505 lb⋅ft (685 N⋅m) of torque as is equipped with the Mercedes COMAND system. [4] [8] The Vantage V8 is capable of accelerating from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 3.6 seconds, and attaining a top speed of 314 km/h (195 mph). [9] [10]

The Vantage uses a rear-mounted 8-speed automatic gearbox manufactured by ZF Friedrichshafen, and will be the only vehicle that pairs the Mercedes-AMG V8 with a manual transmission when the combination is made available. [4] [11] [12] The engine is positioned as far back within the chassis as possible, and a 50/50 front/rear weight distribution has been achieved with the car. [13] The Vantage is also the first Aston Martin production car to feature an electronically controlled differential with torque vectoring, and is built around the same all-new bonded-aluminium platform as the DB11, although around 70% of its components are said to be unique to the Vantage. [14] The car has a dry weight of 1,530 kg (3,373 lb). [15]

The design of the Vantage is inspired by the track-only Vulcan and the purpose made DB10 that appeared in the James Bond film Spectre . [8] The front grille, specifically inspired by the Vulcan, helps in efficient engine cooling. [16] For purposes of weight saving, the Vantage forfeits the passenger glove compartment and maintains a simple centre console design. [17]

V8 Vantage AMR

The Vantage AMR is a track-focused variant of the Vantage. The main highlight of the model is the replacement of the ZF 8-speed automatic transmission with a dog-leg Graziano Trasmissioni 7-speed manual transmission previously used on the V12 Vantage S. The AMR also comes with a driver-selectable AMSHIFT system which controls the throttle during gear shifting. A new limited-slip differential ensures linear delivery of power. The power-band of the engine is wider and the unit is designed to deliver 625 N⋅m (461 lb⋅ft) of torque from 2,000 rpm to 5,000 rpm. The use of a manual transmission and carbon-ceramic brakes reduce the weight by 95 kg (209 lb). New adaptive dampers with the section of Sport, Sport + and Track modes improve handling. Performance figures include a 0–97 km/h (60 mph) acceleration time of 3.9 seconds, half a second less than the standard Vantage while the top speed remains the same as the standard model. Visual changes include 20-inch forged wheels as available on the Rapide AMR, new carbon fibre side vents and cooling vents present on the bonnet a sports exhaust system with quad tailpipes and racing bucket seats.

Production of the AMR will be limited to 200 units worldwide. Available exterior colours for the AMR include Sabiro Blue, Onyx Black, China Grey and White Stone. The final 59 cars will be finished in a Sterling Green exterior colour with Lime accents and will pay homage to the 1959 24 Hours of LeMans victory of Aston Martin. Once the production of the AMR ceases, the 7-speed manual transmission will become available on the standard Vantage. [18] [19]

The vehicle went on sale in May 2019, with delivery set to begin in Q4 2019. [20]

V8 Vantage Roadster

Vantage Roadster

Revealed in February 2020, the Vantage Roadster is a convertible version of the V8 Coupe with a fabric roof. The roof, claimed to be the fastest of any automotive automatic convertible system, takes 6.7 seconds to lower and 6.8 seconds to raise and can be operated at speeds of up to 50 km/h (31 mph). [21] The Vantage Roadster has a dry weight of 1,628 kg (3,589 lb). [22]

Delivery was set to begin in Q4 2019. [23]

V8 Vantage 007 Edition

The 007 Edition is a version of the V8 Coupe commemorating the film No Time to Die . Inspired by the Aston Martin V8 Vantage from the 1987 James Bond film The Living Daylights , the Vantage 007 Edition comes equipped with a unique mesh grille and chrome bezel, as well as Cumberland Grey exterior paint over an obsidian black leather interior. Production is limited to 100 units. [24] [25]

In March 2020, Aston Martin introduced the V12 Speedster, a production car inspired by the DBR1 of the late 1950s and the 2013 CC100 Speedster concept. Aston Martin will produce 88 units at a base price of $950,000. It uses a 5.2-litre twin turbo V12 based on the one from the DBS Superleggera but with less power and torque. The engine sends its power to a ZF 8-speed gearbox. [27] It can accelerate from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 3.5 seconds and has a top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). It has 21-inch forged, centre-locking wheels, carbon ceramic brakes and adaptive dampers. [28] It uses a version of the Vantage roadster's bonded aluminium chassis, along with most of the front-end structure of the DBS Superleggera grafted on to accommodate the larger size of its V12. It has pods behind the seats that are sized to transport helmets and a removable leather bag where the glovebox would normally be. [29]

[45] [46] It uses Aston Martin's AE31 5.2-litre twin-turbocharged V12 and has a power output of 700 PS (515 kW; 690 hp) and 555 lb-ft (753 Nm) of torque.

For the 2025 model year, the Vantage was given a significant rework. [57] [58] The new model features an all-new front fascia with updated side and rear styling, updated interior with new proprietary infotainment with 10.25-inch screen similar to the DB12, stiffened body structure, smarter active dynamics, and a larger radiator grille which increases airflow to the radiators by 50 percent.
